Funny thing.  This species always lands like this while most other ducks come to a graceful skiing stop.

Super action shot, Paul. The splashing water is terrific, and the pose just above the water makes it. Great job!

Splash is excellent. Bird looks like a torpedo given where his wings are held at this moment!
